    Hi Sonja! I read yesterday that you will be revising and expanding Modules 1-3 to reflect new resources to replace Oxford. I’ve already started gathering materials for next year, as I see them, and I am wondering if the book list will change significantly? I will be doing Module 2 with a 2nd grader.

    Thanks so much!

    The Oxford book is used only with grades 7-9 in the Joshua through Malachi & Ancient Greece module, Katrina. So if you already have the books collected, you can use them according to the current handbook. No worries.

    As far as changes in the revised edition forthcoming, I’m planning to incorporate some of the suggestions given by the helpful ladies on this forum. The book list isn’t finalized yet, but as of right now I’m planning to switch the Famiy spine to the Guerber “Story of the Greeks” book, the version from Nothing New Press. And I’m thinking I’ll assign the “Our Little Spartan Cousin of Long Ago” and “Our Little Athenian Cousin of Long Ago” for the grades 1-3 range.

    I’m also planning to completely revise the geography, eliminating the current suggestion and building off the “Material World” and “Hungry Planet” books instead. 

    How’s that for clear as mud?

    I think the muddiness is PERFECT. I cannot wait! To be rather obnoxious here … any rough ballpark when you might have the Mod 2 guide revised? Say, maybe before the fall this year? 🙂

    I would love to have it ready before fall. That’s my goal. We’ll see what life brings. Smile

    Would love to have the new changes ready for the fall, but will wait with anticipation as well.

    Thank you for such great products and listening to your “followers.” LOL.
